Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Wheeler, WI.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
